00:02 IN OUR FOUR PART SERIES ON THE BOOK OF GALATIONS. 00:03 YOU'RE NOT GOING TO WANT TO MISS THE CONCLUSION TO 00:07 THE BOOK OF GALATIONS. 00:08 "IT IS WRITTEN" BEGINS RIGHT NOW. 00:14 (MUSIC) 00:24 >>ANNOUNCER: IT HAS STOOD THE TEST OF TIME... 00:27 GOD'S BOOK, THE BIBLE. 00:30 STILL RELEVANT IN TODAY'S COMPLEX WORLD. 00:35 IT IS WRITTEN . . . 00:37 SHARING MESSAGES OF HOPE AROUND THE WORLD. 00:42 (MUSIC) 00:51 >>BILL: WELL LET ME WELCOME ALL OF OUR VIEWERS 00:52 TO THIS WEEKS "IT IS WRITTEN" PROGRAM. THANK 00:54 YOU FOR TAKING THE TIME TO BE WITH US AND LET ME 00:57 THANK DR. KNIGHT WHO HAS BEEN OUR GUIDE, OUR TUTOR, 00:58 AS WE'VE MADE OUR WAY THROUGH THE BOOK OF 01:04 GALATIONS. >>DR. KNIGHT: WELL BILL, IT'S BEEN GOOD 01:05 TO BE HERE. >>BILL: WELL, I HAVE TO TELL YOU, YOU 01:07 REALLY MADE THE BOOK OF GALATIONS COME ALIVE 01:09 FOR ME AND I'M SURE FOR OUR VIEWERS ALSO. >>DR. 01:13 KNIGHT: WELL, YOU KNOW, WHEN WE LOOK AT THESE 01:14 BIBLICAL BOOKS WE NEED TO REALLY SEE THEM AS BOOKS 01:17 OF ACTION. AND WHEN YOU SEE PAUL CONFRONTING PETER 01:22 BECAUSE PETER WAS NOT LIVING ACCORDING TO GOSPEL 01:23 PRINCIPLES AND NOT JUST TAKING HIS WORDS BUT TRY 01:27 TO GET YOURSELF INTO IT. 01:27 I MEAN, HERE'S PAUL, HE'S BEING ACCUSED OF NOT BEING 01:32 A REAL APOSTLE. >>BILL: RIGHT. DR. KNIGHT: AND, 01:35 YOU KNOW BILL, HE'S JUST LIKE ME. HE'S JUST LIKE 01:36 YOU. SOMEBODY SAID, YOU'RE NOT QUITE A REAL PREACHER, 01:39 YOU KNOW. WE'D SAY, WAIT A MINUTE. >>BILL: HE WANTS 01:42 TO ESTABLISH HIS CREDENTIALS. >>DR. KNIGHT: 01:43 THAT'S WHAT HE DOES IN CHAPTER ONE AND TWO. AND 01:46 WE GET INTO THAT HISTORY STUFF.>>BILL: THAT'S 01:49 RIGHT. >>DR. KNIGHT:.AND WE SAY, WAIT A MINUTE, I 01:50 DIDN'T GET THIS FROM PETER AND I DIDN'T GET IT FROM 01:54 JAMES. >>BILL: I DIDN'T GET IT FROM ANY MAN, 01:56 RIGHT? >>DR. KNIGHT: YEAH, I DIDN'T GET IT FROM 01:57 ANYBODY. I GOT IT FROM GOD. >>BILL: YES. >>DR. 01:59 KNIGHT: IN FACT, I DIDN'T EVEN HAVE TIME TO DO THAT. 02:00 AND HE SAYS, I PREACHED FOR THREE YEARS 02:01 BEFORE.>>BILL: BEFORE I WENT AND SAW PETER. >>DR. 02:05 KNIGHT:.BEFORE I WENT TO JERUSALEM AND THEN I WAS 02:08 ONLY THERE FOR 15 DAYS. 02:08 AND THEN IT WAS 14 MORE YEARS AND SO I GOT MINE 02:14 FROM GOD AND I AM AT LEAST EQUAL TO THE HIGHEST 02:15 APOSTLE. >>BILL: YES. 02:21 >>DR. KNIGHT: FOR, AFTERALL, I HAD TO FACE 02:22 OFF WITH PETER. SO HE ESTABLISHES HIS 02:23 CREDENTIALS AND IN THE PROCESS HE BEGINS TO SET 02:27 FORTH THE GOSPEL. ONCE AGAIN, HE LOVES TO PREACH 02:28 THE GOSPEL. THAT JESUS DIED FOR US. THAT WE 02:32 ACCEPT IT BY FAITH, NOT BY WORKS LEST ANY MAN SHOULD 02:37 BOAST. I JUST WENT TO ANOTHER BOOK OF THE BIBLE 02:38 BUT IT'S ALL THE SAME HERE. AND THEN THAT 02:41 CHRIST LIVES IN ME. THAT'S THE FIRST TWO CHAPTERS. 02:44 >>BILL: YES. THEN IN THREE AND FOUR, WHICH WE STUDIED 02:46 LAST WEEK, RIGHT? >>DR. 02:52 KNIGHT: THAT'S RIGHT. 02:53 >>BILL: WE GET SOME OF HIS THEOLOGY, RIGHT? >>DR. 02:54 KNIGHT: YES, PARTICULARLY THE CENTRALITY OF 02:55 FAITH >>BILL: YEAH. >>DR. 02:57 KNIGHT: THE FAITH WAS THE REAL THING WITH ABRAHAM 02:58 THAT'S HOW COME HE WAS THE COVENANT NOT BECAUSE HE 03:02 GOT CIRCUMSIZED. IT'S JUST LIKE WHEN YOU GET 03:04 BAPTIZED.>>BILL: RIGHT. 03:05 >>DR. KNIGHT:.IT'S NOT BAPTISM THAT SAVES 03:10 US.>>BILL: IT'S WHAT HAPPENS INSIDE. >>DR. 03:11 KNIGHT:...IT'S OUR FAITH IN JESUS CHRIST THAT 03:13 WE HAVE A SAVING RELATIONSHIP. WE GET 03:15 BAPTIZED AS A .>>BILL: SYMBOL. >>DR. 03:16 KNIGHT:.SYMBOL OF THAT. 03:18 >>BILL: RIGHT. >>DR. 03:19 KNIGHT: AND SO THE PLACE OF FAITH AND THE PLACE OF 03:21 THE LAW, THE PLACE OF JESUS DYING ON THE CROSS, 03:22 THE THEOLOGY UNDERGIRDING THE PLAN OF SALVATION. AND 03:27 THEN, OF COURSE, HE COMES TO THAT GREAT CLIMACTIC 03:31 PASSAGE IN VERSE 28, "BECAUSE WE'RE ALL SAVED 03:32 THE SAME WAY, NEITHER JEW NOR GREEK, THERE'S NEITHER 03:36 SLAVE NOR FREED, THERE'S NEITHER MALE NOR FEMALE 03:40 BECAUSE WE ARE ALL ONE IN CHRIST JESUS. AND YOU ARE 03:41 A CHILD OF ABRAHAM IF YOU HAVE FAITH. >>BILL: 03:48 RIGHT. >>DR. KNIGHT:. NOT IF YOU'RE CIRCUMSIZED. 03:51 >>BILL: RIGHT. RIGHT. 03:51 >>DR. KNIGHT: I HAVE NOTHING AGAINST 03:53 CIRCUMCISION. THE JEWS WERE CIRCUMSIZED. HE WAS 03:54 CIRCUMSIZED. BUT IT DOES NOT ADD TO YOUR SALVATION. 03:58 IT'S NOT SOMETHING YOU MUST DO. >>BILL: RIGHT. 04:02 >>DR. KNIGHT: AND, OF COURSE, THE ISSUE OF 04:03 CIRCUMCISION IS ONLY AN ILLUSTRATION. >>BILL: 04:05 RIGHT. RIGHT. >>DR. 04:06 KNIGHT: THERE IS NOTHING, NOTHING THAT WE CAN ADD TO 04:08 GOD'S SAVING GRACE. WORKS ARE NOT SOMETHING THAT 04:16 HELP US GET SAVED. >>BILL: RIGHT. >>DR. KNIGHT: WE'RE 04:17 GOING TO FIND OUT TODAY THAT PAUL IS NOT AGAINST 04:19 WORKS AT ALL. >>BILL: GOOD WORKS. >>DR. KNIGHT: GOOD 04:24 WORKS. BAD WORKS, SINFUL WORKS ARE WORKS THAT 04:25 TRY TO GET US SAVED. BIG DIFFERENCE. >>BILL: NOT 04:31 TO TAKE TOO MUCH TIME ON THIS, BUT I THINK THAT 04:33 ANOTHER THING THAT'S JUMPED OUT ON ME AND I 04:34 THINK THAT FOR A LOT OF VIEWERS IS THAT HE 04:36 OUTLINES THE REAL ROLE OF THE LAW. THAT IS TO POINT 04:40 IT, AS A MIRROR TO SHOW US WHO WE ARE, THAT WE ARE 04:41 SINNERS, IT DOESN'T SOLVE THAT PROBLEM BUT THAT 04:45 WE HAVE TO GO TO JESUS CHRIST TO RESOLVE THAT SIN 04:49 PROBLEM IN OUR LIVES. 04:49 >>DR. KNIGHT: IT'S THE CUSTODIAN THAT TAKES US TO 04:51 THE SAVIOUR. >>BILL: THAT'S RIGHT. >>DR. 04:52 KNIGHT: THE LAW HAS A BIG POINTED FINGER. I WAS 04:55 ALWAYS TOLD, BILL, THAT YOU SHOULDN'T POINT AT 04:59 PEOPLE WHILE YOU'RE PREACHING. BUT I'M GOING 05:00 TO POINT AT YOU BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT THE LAW 05:02 DOES. >>BILL: YEAH. >>DR. 05:03 KNIGHT: THE LAW POINTS AT YOU AND SAYS, BILL SANTOS 05:05 OR GEORGE KNIGHT AND SAYS YOU ARE A SINNER. >>BILL: 05:11 RIGHT. >>DR. KNIGHT: AND WITH THAT THE LAW FORMS 05:12 THE CUSTODIAL FUNCTION TO LEAD US TO JESUS. >>BILL: 05:15 RIGHT. >>DR. KNIGHT: AND WHEN WE GET TO JESUS THE 05:18 LAW NO LONGER HAS THAT FUNCTION. WE NO LONGER 05:19 NEED THE LAW AS A CUSTODIAN. BUT STILL 05:22 THERE'S GOD'S IDEAL AND WHEN WE BREAK THAT IDEAL 05:26 THE CUSTODIAL FUNCTION COMES BACK AGAIN AND SAYS 05:27 AGAIN, THOU ART A SINNER. 05:34 OVER AND OVER IN OUR LIVES THE LAW LEADS US TO THE 05:35 FOOT OF THE CROSS. AND I'D LIKE TO SAY SOMETHING 05:39 HERE. >>BILL: SURE. >>DR. 05:40 KNIGHT: WE HAVE PEOPLE THAT TALK GRACE VERSUS 05:42 LAW. >>BILL: THAT'S RIGHT. 05:43 >>DR. KNIGHT: YOU KNOW SOMETHING, IF YOU DIDN'T 05:46 HAVE LAW, YOU WOULDN'T NEED GRACE. >>BILL: THAT'S 05:50 RIGHT. >>DR. KNIGHT: YOU WOULDN'T NEED IT. THE TWO 05:51 GO HAND IN HAND. >>BILL: YES. >>DR. KNIGHT: AND THE 05:58 LAW ALWAYS POINTS TO THE NEED OF SALVATION BY GRACE 06:03 BECAUSE WE CANNOT DO IT OURSELVES. >>BILL: YES. 06:04 ABSOLUTELY. NOW AS WE COME TO THE LAST TWO CHAPTERS, 06:08 RIGHT? FIVE AND SIX. THIS IS WHERE I THINK YOU HAD 06:12 MENTIONED THIS IS THE PRACTICAL APPLICATION 06:13 >>DR. KNIGHT: THAT'S RIGHT. >>BILL: THIS 06:15 IS WHERE IT BEGINS TO MANIFEST ITSELF, RIGHT? 06:18 >>DR. KNIGHT: THIS IS THE PATTERN OF ALL PAUL'S 06:19 LETTERS. WELL, NEARLY ALL OF THEM. IT WORKS 06:21 IN THESSALONIANS LETTERS, IT'S IN ROMANS, YOU'VE GOT 06:25 THOSE CHAPTERS ON JUSTIFICATION, ON 06:26 SANCTIFICATION, AND NOW WE'RE ALL SAVED IN CHRIST. 06:29 JEWS AND GENTILES ALIKE AND IT MOVES INTO HOW TO 06:34 LIVE IN CHAPTERS 12 THROUGH 15. AND WE'RE 06:35 GOING TO FIND THE SAME THING HERE. I MEAN, A 06:40 GREAT BOOK ON SALVATION BY GRACE ON THE BASIS OF THE 06:42 CROSS AND WHEN IT COMES RIGHT DOWN TO IT ONCE 06:43 YOU'VE BEEN SAVED IT WILL TRANSFORM YOUR LIFE. 06:48 YOU WILL LIVE DIFFERENT >>BILL: WELL, LET'S GET 06:53 INTO IT. I WAS REMEMBERING THAT THERE HAD BEEN 06:54 THIS CONFLICT THAT'S BEEN BEHIND THE SCENES HERE, 06:58 RIGHT? WHICH HAS PROMPTED PAUL TO HAVE TO RESPOND TO 07:01 THIS. >>DR. KNIGHT: THAT'S RIGHT. >>BILL: THAT 07:02 CONFLICT IS THERE. >>DR. 07:03 KNIGHT: YOU KNOW YOU GET SOMETHING IN YOUR EYE 07:04 YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE TO DEAL WITH IT. >>BILL: 07:07 THAT'S RIGHT. >>DR. 07:07 KNIGHT: PAUL'S GOT SOMETHING IN HIS EYES AND 07:10 HE'S PRETTY FRUSTRATED WITH THESE PEOPLE WHO ARE 07:11 REALLY DESTROYING HIS WORK OF THE GOSPEL. >>BILL: 07:12 RIGHT. >>DR. KNIGHT: YOU KNOW, LIKE HE SAYS OVER 07:15 HERE IN VERSE 1, CHAPTER 1, "IF ANYBODY COMES TO 07:18 YOU WITH A DIFFERENT INTERPRETATION OF THE 07:19 GOSPEL LET HIM BE A CURSED". I MEAN, VERSE 07:23 9, AND HE SAYS IT AGAIN IN VERSE 10. I MEAN, PAUL 07:27 COULD.THAT'S A VERY STRONG WORD. >>BILL: YES. >>DR. 07:28 KNIGHT: YOU KNOW. IT'S A WORD OF DAMNATION. >>BILL: 07:31 YES. >>DR. KNIGHT: I MEAN PAUL IS SERIOUS ABOUT THE 07:36 GOSPEL. AND I THINK WE OUGHT TO BE SERIOUS ABOUT 07:37 THE GOSPEL. >>BILL: I THINK YOU'RE ABSOLUTELY 07:39 RIGHT. THAT'S DANGEROUS TERRITORY WHEN YOU START 07:41 PREACHING A GOSPEL DIFFERENT FROM WHAT IS 07:42 CONTAINED HERE. >>DR. 07:44 KNIGHT: AND I'M GONNA TELL YOU RIGHT NOW, SERIOUS 07:45 BIBLE STUDENTS, SERIOUS BIBLE CHRISTIANS ALWAYS 07:48 SEEM TO HAVE PROBLEMS THEY ALWAYS HAVE PROBLEMS 07:55 WITH THE LAW AND THE GOSPEL. THE GRACE. >>BILL: 07:56 YES. >>DR. KNIGHT: BUT WE NEED TO REMEMBER THAT THE 08:00 TWO ARE NOT ENEMIES. THEY GO TOGETHER. THE LAW LEADS 08:05 US TO GRACE AND WHEN WE'VE BEEN FORGIVING, THAT'S 08:06 WHAT WE CALL FORGIVING GRACE. THERE'S ALSO 08:11 TRANSFORMING GRACE. GOD'S GIFT OF A NEW HEART SO WE 08:15 HAVE NEW DESIRES. AND THEN THERE'S EMPOWERING GRACE, 08:16 SO WE CAN WALK EVERYDAY WITH GOD. WE NEVER WALK 08:21 ON OUR OWN STEAM, IF WE'RE CHRISTIANS. WE ALWAYS WALK 08:26 THROUGHT THE EMPOWERING GRACE OF THE SPIRIT. 08:27 >>BILL: RIGHT. >>DR. 08:30 KNIGHT: AND WE'RE GOING TO GET INTO THE BIG.YOU KNOW, 08:31 WE'VE GOT THE GOD THE FATHER, WE'VE HAD HIM 08:33 IN THE BOOK OF GALATIONS WE'VE HAD JESUS CHRIST; 08:35 WE'VE HAD.NOW WE'RE GOING TO COME TO THE SPIRIT AS 08:36 WE GET INTO CHAPTER FIVE. 08:39 >>BILL: IN FACT, THE HEADING HERE IN MY BIBLE 08:40 IN CHAPTER FIVE IS 'WALK BY THE SPIRIT'. 08:42 >>DR. KNIGHT: WALK BY THE SPIRIT. AND WE'RE GOING TO 08:44 COME TO THE WORD WALK IN THERE TOO BECAUSE THAT'S 08:45 AN IMPORTANT WORD. >>BILL: OKAY. >>DR. KNIGHT: OKAY. 08:49 SO THE FIRST VERSE OF CHAPTER FIVE, "FOR FREEDOM 08:54 CHRIST HAS SET US FREE; STAND FAST THEREFORE, AND 08:55 DO NOT SUBMIT AGAIN TO THE YOLK OF SLAVERY". WELL, 09:01 WHAT IS THE YOLK OF SLAVERY HERE? IT'S THOSE 09:04 PEOPLE WHO ARE SAYING GRACE IS NOT ENOUGH FOR 09:05 SALVATION.>>BILL: I'VE GOT TO EARN MINE. >>DR. 09:10 KNIGHT: YOU MUST BE CIRCUMSIZED, YOU MUST DO 09:11 THIS...CIRCUMCISION AS WE'VE NOTED BEFORE IS JUST 09:12 AN ILLUSTRATION. IT COULD BE ANY OTHER THING. 09:15 NOTHING IS ADDED. IN FACT, PAUL GETS SO UPSET WITH 09:21 HIS PEOPLE DOWN IN VERSE 12 HE SAYS, "I WISH THAT 09:22 THOSE WHO UNSETTLE YOU WOULD MUTILATE 09:24 THEMSELVES". >>BILL: WOW. 09:25 >>DR. KNIGHT: WHAT DOES YOUR TRANSLATION SAY? 09:28 >>BILL: IT SAYS, "I WISH THAT THOSE WHO ARE 09:29 TROUBLING YOU WOULD MUTILATE.YEAH. >>DR. 09:30 KNIGHT: OKAY, WELL SOME PLACES IT SAYS IMASCULATE 09:33 THEMSELVES. >>BILL: WOW. 09:33 >>DR. KNIGHT: IT SAYS IF YOU'RE GOING TO CIRCUMSIZE 09:35 YOURSELF WHY NOT GO ALL THE WAY AND JUST.>>BILL: 09:37 DO THE WHOLE THING. YES. 09:38 >>DR. KNIGHT: SO PAUL IS REALLY UPSET BUT THERE'S A 09:40 KEY WORD HERE IN VERSE SIX. IN FACT WE'LL READ 09:41 VERSE SIX. "FOR IN CHRIST, NEITHER CIRCUMCISION 09:47 NOR UNCIRCUMCISION IS OF ANY AVAIL", IT'S NOT THE 09:50 OUTWARD THINGS THAT COUNT. 09:51 >>BILL: THAT'S RIGHT. 09:52 >>DR. KNIGHT: "BUT FAITH WORKING THROUGH LOVE." 09:54 >>BILL: WOW. >>DR. KNIGHT: AND HERE WE'RE GOING TO 09:58 COME TO A THEME THAT WE'RE GOING TO PICK UP AGAIN 09:59 IN VERSE 14. FAITH WORKING THROUGH LOVE. THERE ARE 10:02 BAD WORKS AND THERE ARE GOOD WORKS. AND I THINK 10:10 THAT THIS IS IMPORTANT BECAUSE A LOT OF 10:11 CHRISTIANS ARE REALLY CONFUSED. BECAUSE PAUL 10:13 SAYS IN ROMANS 3:20, "BY WORKS OF THE LAW SHOULD NO 10:17 FLESH BE JUSTIFIED". NO. 10:18 THERE IS NO WAY. IF YOU ARE WORKING TO GET SAVED, 10:23 YOU ARE LOST. >>BILL: YOU'RE NEVER GOING TO 10:24 DO THAT. YES. IT'S NEVER GOING TO WORK. >>DR. 10:28 KNIGHT: HOWEVER, ONCE YOU ARE SAVED YOUR FAITH WILL 10:31 WORK THROUGH LOVE. THIS IS POWERFUL STUFF. IT WILL 10:32 CHANGE YOUR LIFE. AND WITH THAT WE COME TO THE NEXT 10:38 PARAGRAPH HERE, VERSE 13 "FOR YOU WERE CALLED TO 10:43 FREEDOM, BRETHEREN. ONLY DO NOT USE YOUR FREEDOM 10:44 AS AN OPPORTUNITY FOR THE FLESH". NOW FLESH REALLY 10:48 HAS TWO MEANINGS. >>BILL: OKAY. >>DR. KNIGHT: OFTEN 10:54 WE THINK OF THE SEXUAL SINS OR THE NASTY THINGS 10:55 >>BILL: RIGHT. >>DR. 10:58 KNIGHT: BUT FLESH CAN ALSO BE SALVATION BY WORKS 10:59 >>BILL: OH, OKAY. >>DR. 11:04 KNIGHT: I WANT TO SAY, LOOK AT WHAT I'VE DONE 11:05 >>BILL: LOOK AT ME. LOOK AT WHAT I DID. >>DR. 11:09 KNIGHT: I'M A PRETTY GOOD PERSON, YOU KNOW. THAT'S 11:12 THE FLESH. >>BILL: RIGHT. 11:13 >>DR. KNIGHT: BECAUSE THIS KIND OF BOASTING IN 11:18 OURSELVES RATHER THAN THE CROSS OF CHRIST FAILS 11:19 TO REALIZE HOW BROKEN AND SINFUL WE REALLY ARE. 11:23 I LIKE TO TELL PEOPLE THERE'S TWO KINDS OF SIN. 11:28 THERE'S NASTY SIN AND THERE'S VEGETARIAN SIN 11:29 THE VEGETARIAN SIN.>>BILL: OKAY. >>DR. KNIGHT:..WAS 11:34 THE SIN OF THE PHAROSY >>BILL: RIGHT. >>DR. 11:37 KNIGHT: THE PHAROSY KEPT ALL THE LAWS AND ALL 11:38 THE RULES AND ALL THE REGULATIONS AND WHEN THEY 11:43 GOT FINISHED THEY SAID, LOOK AT ME.>>BILL: LOOK AT 11:50 ME. >>DR. KNIGHT:.I'M BETTER THAN YOU. >>BILL: 11:51 RIGHT. >>DR. KNIGHT: NOW THEY HAVE A VEGETARIAN 11:55 SIN. PRIDE. AND INTERESTINGLY ENOUGH, THE 11:56 VEGETARIAN SINS ARE THE WORST KIND.>>BILL: OH. 11:57 >>DR. KNIGHT:.BECAUSE YOU FEEL NO NEED TO 12:00 REPENT. >>BILL: WELL, I'M FULFILLING ALL THE 12:02 REQUIREMENTS. >>DR. 12:03 KNIGHT: THAT'S RIGHT. I'M A GOOD GUY. I'M BETTER 12:05 THAN YOU. >>BILL: THAT'S RIGHT. >>DR. KNIGHT: IN 12:06 FACT, PAUL IS GOING TO GET DOWN TO THAT SHORTLY. 12:08 WE'RE GOING TO HAVE TO GET GOING HERE. OKAY. NOW, 12:10 VERSE 14, "FOR THE WHOLE LAW IS FULFILLED IN ONE 12:11 WORD, YOU SHALL LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOUR AS YOURSELF". 12:17 NOW, IS THAT TRUE? HE'S BUILDING UPON JESUS, IN 12:22 MATTHEW 22, VERSES 36 TO 40 WHEN JESUS IS 12:23 ASKED, WHAT IS THE GREAT COMMANDMENT? >>BILL: 12:26 RIGHT. >>DR. KNIGHT: AND SOMEBODY EXPECTS HIM TO 12:29 SAY, WELL, YOU KNOW, ANY ONE OF THE TEN 12:30 COMMANDMENTS, MOST LIKELY. 12:39 >>BILL: RIGHT. >>DR. 12:39 KNIGHT: HE HAD 600 OF THEM TO CHOOSE FROM. AND JESUS 12:41 SAID, "YOU SHALL LOVE THY LORD, OUR GOD, WITH ALL 12:42 YOUR HEART AND ALL THY MIND AND ALL THY SOUL". 12:45 THE SECOND IS LIKENED TO IT, "YOU SHALL LOVE THY 12:48 NEIGHBOUR AS YOURSELF". 12:49 AND WE FIND THAT THIS LOVING.AND THE PROBLEM IS 12:56 THAT SOME PEOPLE THINK THAT THEY CAN LOVE GOD 12:57 WITHOUT LOVING THEIR NEIGHBOUR. >>BILL: 12:59 OKAY. >>DR. KNIGHT: AND I UNDERSTAND THAT EVEN TAKES 13:03 PLACE IN SOME CHURCHES. 13:03 WE'VE GOT PEOPLE WHO THINK THEY CAN LOVE GOD WITHOUT 13:05 LOVING OTHER PEOPLE. NO, I'M TELLING YOU. SO THAT'S 13:06 THE REASON.PAUL REALIZES THAT MOST PEOPLE DON'T 13:11 HAVE TROUBLE LOVING GOD THEY DON'T HAVE TO LIVE 13:16 WITH GOD. >>BILL: IT'S LOVING THE PEOPLE, THAT'S 13:17 WHERE IT GETS COMPLICATED. 13:24 >>DR. KNIGHT: AND HE TIES THIS, INTERESTINGLY 13:25 ENOUGH, IF YOU TAKE THE PARALLEL PASSAGE IN 13:28 ROMANS, VERSES 8 -10, HE TIES IT TO THE TEN 13:32 COMMANDMENTS. LOVE IS FULFILLED IN ONE WORD, 13:33 THAT IS LOVING YOUR NEIGHBOUR. AND THEN HE 13:35 STARTS QUOTING THE TEN COMMANDMENTS, THOU SHALT 13:39 NOT STEAL; THOU SHALT NOT.AND GOES RIGHT ON 13:40 DOWN THE LAW. SO, THE TEN COMMANDMENTS IS INCLUDED 13:43 HERE BUT THERE'S SOMETHING MORE BASIC. THE WHOLE LAW 13:48 IS FULFILLED IN ONE WORD; YOU SHOULD LOVE YOUR 13:49 NEIGHBOUR AS YOURSELF. AND HE WROTE THAT FOR A REASON 13:53 AND THE REASON SHOWS UP IN VERSE 15. >>BILL: OKAY. 13:58 >>DR. KNIGHT:"BUT IF YOU BITE AND DEVOUR ONE 13:59 ANOTHER".NOW WHY DO YOU THINK HE ADDED THOSE WORDS 14:04 IN THERE. SOME OF THE PEOPLE IN THE CORINTHIAN, 14:09 THE GALATION CHURCH.>>BILL: ARE DOING 14:10 A LITTLE BITING OF EACH OTHER. >>DR. KNIGHT: 14:11 THAT'S RIGHT. >>BILL: YEAH. >>DR. KNIGHT: THAT'S 14:13 RIGHT. AND SO THIS IS GOOD PASTORAL COUNCIL BUT IT'S 14:14 FANTASTIC THEOLOGY TO. ALL NEW TESTAMENT THEOLOGY 14:17 IS PRACTICAL THEOLOGY >>BILL: RIGHT. >>DR. 14:21 KNIGHT: WE DON'T EVER HAVE A SYSTEMATIC THEOLOGY. 14:22 IT'S ALWAYS IN THE PROCESS OF DEALING WITH ISSUES. 14:26 SO, BUT "IF YOU BITE AND DEVOUR TAKE HEED THAT YOU 14:32 ARE NOT CONSUMED BY ONE ANOTHER". VERSE 16, ONE OF 14:33 PAUL'S GREAT PASSAGES, IS THIS NEXT PARAGRAPH, "BUT 14:39 I SAY WALK BY THE SPIRIT" AND THE FIRST WORD THAT 14:45 JUMPS OFF THE PAGE AT ME IS THE WORD 'WALK'. ALL 14:46 THE WAY THROUGH THE BIBLE THE WORD 'WALK' IS USED 14:51 IN A CONTINUOUS SENSE OF HOW CHRISTIANS SHOULD LIVE 14:56 THEIR LIVES. WE'RE GOING TO BE WALKING WITH 14:57 SOMEBODY, WE'RE GOING TO BE WALKING WITH JESUS OR 15:00 WE'RE GOING TO BE WALKING WITH THE DEVIL. >>BILL: 15:05 RIGHT. THERE'S NO OTHER OPTIONS. >>DR. KNIGHT: 15:06 THERE'S NO OTHER OPTIONS AND IN THIS PARTICULAR 15:08 PARAGRAPH IT'S NOT GOING TO SAY THE DEVIL OR JESUS, 15:14 IT'S GOING TO BE SAYING YOU CAN EITHER WALK BY THE 15:15 FLESH.>>BILL: OR WALK BY THE SPIRIT. >>DR. 15:20 KNIGHT:.OR BY THE SPIRIT >>BILL: I SEE. >>DR. 15:23 KNIGHT: AND SO WE GET TO THESE FRUITS OF THE 15:24 DIFFERENT WAYS OF LIFE. 15:26 OKAY, VERSE 16, "BUT I SAY WALK BY THE SPIRIT AND DO 15:27 NOT GRATIFY THE DESIRES OF THE FLESH". YOU SEE, IT 15:33 WOULD BE WONDERFUL IF WE WERE FIRST CONVERTED AND 15:40 WE NEVER HAD A BAD THOUGHT OR TEMPTATION AGAIN, YOU 15:41 KNOW. AND I THOUGHT, BOY, WHEN I GET BAPTIZED 15:47 THAT'S GONNA BE IT. I'M GONNA WAKE UP THE NEXT DAY 15:50 AND.>>BILL: AND I'LL BE PERFECT, NO PROBLEMS 15:51 >>DR. KNIGHT:.NO, NO, NO. 15:52 THERE'S A GREAT CONTROVERSY NOT ONLY IN 15:53 THE GALAXY ABOVE BUT ALSO IN EVERY HUMAN HEART. 15:56 >>BILL: YOU'RE ABSOLUTELY RIGHT. >>DR. KNIGHT: AND 16:00 THE PERSONALITIES ARE THE GREAT CONTROVERSY. IT'S A 16:01 GREAT CONTROVERSY BETWEEN CHRIST AND SATAN. >>BILL: 16:05 YES. >>DR. KNIGHT: WHO WILL HAVE YOUR HEART? 16:07 >>BILL: YES. >>DR. 16:07 KNIGHT: WHO WILL WALK WITH YOU? >>BILL: RIGHT. >>DR. 16:09 KNIGHT: YOU WALK THE WAY OF THE FLESH.>>BILL: OR 16:10 YOU WALK THE WAY OF THE SPIRIT, RIGHT? >>DR. 16:13 KNIGHT: YEAH. THAT'S IT. 16:13 >>BILL: AND IF YOU WALK THE WAY OF THE FLESH, 16:15 THAT'S, IT'S GOING TO BE EXHIBITED, RIGHT? YOU'RE 16:16 GONNA SEE CERTAIN THINGS THEN. >>DR. KNIGHT: THAT'S 16:17 RIGHT. NOW, LET'S GO TO VERSE 19, "NOW THE WORKS 16:20 OF THE FLESH", NOW NOTICE THE WORKS OF THE FLESH IS 16:24 PLURAL. THERE ARE MANY DIFFERENT WAYS YOU CAN GO 16:25 WRONG. "THE WORKS OF THE FLESH ARE PLAIN. IT STARTS 16:30 OUT WITH SEXUAL SINS; FORNICATION, IMPURITY, 16:34 LICENTIOUSNESS", IT STARTS OUT THERE BECAUSE THESE 16:35 WERE MAJOR PROBLEMS IN THE GREEK CULTURE. >>BILL: IN 16:39 THAT CULTURE, RIGHT. >>DR. 16:39 KNIGHT: IN FACT, I'M GOING TO TELL YOU RIGHT 16:41 NOW.>>BILL: IN TODAY'S CULTURE. >>DR. KNIGHT:.IN 16:43 TODAY'S CULTURE YOU CAN MARCH THAT OUT WITH 16:44 THE SAME WORDS. >>BILL: ABSOLUTELY. THE SAME 16:46 THING. >>DR. KNIGHT: THEN HE MOVES ON TO SPIRITUAL, 16:49 RELIGIOUS SINS. >>BILL: RIGHT, I SEE. >>DR. 16:49 KNIGHT: "IDOLATRY, SORCERY", FALSE RELIGION. 16:52 >>BILL: RIGHT. >>DR. 16:52 KNIGHT: AND THEN MOVES ON TO DIFFERENT DISORDERS 16:55 IN PERSONAL RELATIONSHIPS; "ENMITY, STRIFE, JEALOUSY, 17:02 ANGER, SELFISHNESS, DISSENSION, PARTY SPIRIT, 17:03 ENVY". I TELL YOU, I HATE TO THINK OF SOME OF THESE 17:09 THINGS BECAUSE SOMETIMES, YOU KNOW; WE GET A LITTLE 17:16 JEALOUS AS CHRISTIANS, DON'T WE? >>BILL: YES 17:17 WE DO. >>DR. KNIGHT: YOU KNOW, I MEAN, I KNOW IT'S 17:19 WRONG TO GO OUT AND, YOU KNOW, I MEAN, THE FIRST 17:21 GROUP THERE.>>BILL: YES. 17:22 >>DR.KNIGHT:.FORNICATION AND IMPURITY BUT JEALOUSY 17:25 AND A LITTLE BIT OF SELFISHNESS DOESN'T HURT 17:26 ANYBODY, DOES IT? >>BILL: THAT'S RIGHT. IT'S RIGHT 17:31 IN THERE. IT'S RIGHT IN THERE WITH ALL THE OTHER 17:33 ONES. >>DR. KNIGHT: DOES HE HAVE TO BECOME QUITE 17:34 SO.I WISH HE'D STAY OUT OF MY LIFE A LITTLE BIT, YOU 17:36 KNOW. THESE THINGS ARE REAL TEMPTATIONS. >>BILL: 17:39 RIGHT. >>DR.KNIGHT: AND THEN HE GOES ON TO SINS OF 17:40 INTEMPERANCE, "DRUNKENESS, CAROUSING AND THE LIKE. I 17:42 WARN YOU, AS I WARNED YOU BEFORE, THAT THOSE WHO DO 17:50 SUCH THINGS SHALL NOT INHERIT THE KINGDOM OF 17:51 GOD". WOW, THAT'S PRETTY SERIOUS. GOD 17:55 IS PARTICULAR.>>BILL: YES. 17:55 >>DR. KNIGHT:.ABOUT HOW WE LIVE, HOW WE WALK. >>BILL: 17:58 BEHAVIOUR DOES PLAY A ROLE HERE, RIGHT? >>DR. KNIGHT: 18:07 SO, LET'S GO ON TO VERSE 22, "CONTRASTED WITH THE 18:08 WORKS, EXCUSE ME, YES, WITH THE WORKS OF THE 18:13 FLESH IS THE FRUIT OF THE SPIRIT. >>BILL: OH, I SEE, 18:18 IT'S SINGULAR. >>DR. 18:19 KNIGHT: NOW NOTICE FRUIT IS SINGULAR. NOW, WE WANT 18:21 TO COME BACK TO THAT BUT LET'S SEE WHAT IT IS 18:22 FIRST. "BUT THE FRUIT OF THE SPIRIT IS LOVE, JOY, 18:24 PEACE, PATIENCE, KINDNESS, GOODNESS, FAITHFULNESS, 18:27 GENTLENESS, SELF-CONTROL; AGAINST SUCH THERE IS NO 18:28 LAW." IN OTHER WORDS, YOU CAN'T LEGISLATE THESE 18:33 THINGS. >>BILL: THAT'S RIGHT. >>DR. KNIGHT: I 18:35 MEAN, CAN WE HAVE A LAW, BILL? >>BILL: THOU SHALT 18:36 BE KIND. >>DR. KNIGHT: YES. THAT'S RIGHT. HAVE A 18:38 LAW. >>BILL: YOU SHALL BE GENTLE. THAT'S THE LAW. 18:40 >>DR. KNIGHT: THAT'S RIGHT. IN FACT, YOU'RE 18:41 GOING TO GO TO JAIL FOR THREE WEEKS IF YOU'RE NOT 18:46 JOYFUL. >>BILL: THAT'S RIGHT. >>DR. KNIGHT: YOU 18:49 CAN'T HAVE A LAW FOR THOSE KINDS OF THINGS. >>BILL: 18:50 THAT'S RIGHT. >>DR. 18:54 KNIGHT: BUT YOU CAN SAY, YOU KNOW, IF YOU LIE IN 18:55 COURT, IF YOU BEAR FALSE WITNESS IN COURT, 18:58 YOU KNOW, YOU GET THREE WEEKS IN THE CLINKER OR 19:01 WHATEVER. >>BILL: YES. 19:02 ABSOLUTELY. >>DR. KNIGHT: SO, THE FRUIT OF THE 19:03 SPIRIT. NOW THE REASON THAT THE WORKS OF THE 19:04 FLESH IS PLURAL AND THE FRUIT OF THE SPIRIT IS 19:08 SINGULAR IS THE FOLLOWING YOU CAN ENVY SOMEBODY 19:09 WITHOUT BEING LICENTIOUS. 19:10 YOU CAN BE AN IDOLATOR WITHOUT BEING AN ANGRY 19:17 PERSON. BUT, SO I MEAN, THESE ARE VERY INDIVIDUAL 19:18 THINGS. >>BILL: THAT'S VERY INTERESTING. >>DR. 19:29 KNIGHT: YOU CAN HAVE SOME OF THEM BUT YOU DON'T HAVE 19:37 TO HAVE ALL OF THEM. 19:37 >>BILL: I SEE. YOU CAN BE ENVIOUS BUT NOT A 19:39 DRUNKARD. >>DR. KNIGHT: THAT'S RIGHT. AND JUST 19:40 BECAUSE YOU ARE JEALOUS DOES NOT MEAN YOU'RE A 19:42 FORNICATOR. >>BILL: RIGHT. 19:42 RIGHT. >>DR. KNIGHT: I MEAN, THERE'S DIFFERENT, 19:43 THERE'S DIFFERENT ATTRIBUTES AT PLAY. BUT 19:45 THE FRUIT IS UNIFIED. 19:45 >>BILL: OH, I SEE. >>DR. 19:46 KNIGHT: NO ACCIDENT THAT LOVE COMES FIRST. BUT 19:48 IF YOU ARE LOVING YOU WILL ALSO BE JOYFUL; IF YOU ARE 19:52 JOYFUL YOU WILL ALSO HAVE PEACE. IF YOU'RE LOVING 19:53 AND PATIENT AND JOYFUL, EXCUSE ME, YOU WILL 19:57 ALSO HAVE PATIENCE AND KINDNESS AND GOODNESS AND 20:01 FAITHFULNESS AND GENTLENESS. HEY, THIS IS 20:02 A PRETTY HIGH ORDER, ISN'T IT? >>BILL: RIGHT. >>DR. 20:06 KNIGHT: HEY, THIS IS NOT SOMETHING THAT YOU CAN 20:09 PICK AND CHOOSE. >>BILL: YEAH. I'LL PICK GOODNESS. 20:10 THAT'S IT. I DON'T WANT THE OTHER ONES. >>DR. 20:13 KNIGHT: THAT'S BECAUSE YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND WHAT IT 20:14 MEANS. >>BILL: ISN'T THAT SOMETHING? ISN'T THAT 20:15 INTERESTING? >>DR. KNIGHT: SO, WHEN IT TALKS ABOUT 20:18 THE FRUIT BEING SINGULAR IT MEANS CHRISTIANITY AS A 20:24 PACKAGE. WHEN IT COMES INTO YOUR LIFE THESE ARE 20:25 ALL GODS IDEALS FOR YOU. 20:30 AND I HAVE TO ADMIT SINCE I'VE BECOME A CHRISTIAN, I 20:31 WAS NOT A CHRISTIAN UNTIL I WAS 19. I WAS RAISED 20:36 AGNOSTIC. THE WHOLE BUSINESS OF BEING JOYFUL 20:41 AND PEACEFUL AND PATIENT HAS REALLY TRANSFORMED MY 20:42 LIFE. NOW, I SUPPOSE WE NEED TO TAKE A LOOK AT 20:46 SOME OF THESE THINGS SO WE CAN ALL GROW IN THESE 20:50 THINGS. JUST BECAUSE I HAVE THE FRUIT OF THE 20:51 SPIRIT DOES NOT MEAN IT IS FULLY DEVELOPED 20:54 YET. >>BILL: RIGHT. >>DR. 20:55 KNIGHT: I THINK SOME OF US ARE STILL STRUGGLING 20:58 SOMEDAYS WITH A LITTLE BIT OF PATIENCE. >>BILL: 21:01 HASN'T QUITE RIPENED YET, THAT FRUIT. >>DR. KNIGHT: 21:02 YES, THAT'S RIGHT. BUT I WANTED TO POINT OUT THE 21:04 DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE FRUITS, EXCUSE ME, THE 21:08 WORKS.>>BILL: THE WORKS OF THE FLESH AND THE 21:09 FRUIT OF THE SPIRIT. >>DR. 21:12 KNIGHT:.FRUIT OF THE SPIRIT. WELL, WE'RE 21:13 RUNNING OUT OF TIME. VERSE 25, "LET US WALK BY 21:15 THE SPIRIT. LET US HAVE NO SELF-CONCEIT, NOT THINKING 21:21 OF OURSELVES BETTER", AND THEN WE GET DOWN HERE TO 21:22 CHAPTER SIX, "BRETHEREN, IF A MAN OR WOMAN IS 21:26 OVERTAKEN IN ANY TREPASS, YOU WHO ARE SPIRITUAL 21:32 SHOULD RESTORE HIM IN A SPIRIT OF GENTLENESS". 21:33 HERE IS THE FRUIT OF THE SPIRIT WALKING INTO THE 21:38 DOOR OF THE CHURCH. WHEN YOU SEE AN ATTACKING 21:43 CHRISTIAN, WHO'S ATTACKED ONE OF THE SHEEP WHO'S 21:44 SINNED, YOU KNOW THEY'VE GOT THE WRONG ATTITUDE 21:51 THEY'RE NOT WALKING WITH THE SPIRIT. "LOOK TO 21:56 YOURSELF, LEST YOU TOO BE TEMPTED." REMEMBER, 21:57 YOU'RE ALL SAVED BY GRACE. 22:00 >>BILL: RIGHT. >>DR. 22:00 KNIGHT: YOU'RE NOT SUPERIOR. "BEAR ONE 22:02 ANOTHER'S BURDENS, AND SO FULFIL THE LAW OF CHRIST" 22:03 THAT IS THE LAW OF LOVE. 22:06 "FOR IF ANY ONE THINKS HE IS SOMETHING, WHEN HE 22:07 IS NOTHING, HE DECEIVES HIMSELF." THERE'S A LOT 22:12 OF THEOLOGY THERE.>>BILL YES. >>DR. KNIGHT:.BECAUSE 22:17 MY AND YOUR AND EVERY OTHER PERSON THAT'S EVER 22:18 BEEN BORN IS TO THINK OF OURSELVES BETTER THAN 22:23 WE SHOULD BE. BUT WE'RE REALLY NOTHING. "WHEN IS 22:27 NOTHING, HE DECEIVES HIMSELF", IF HE THINKS 22:28 HE'S SOMETHING. "BUT LET EACH ONE TEST HIS OWN 22:33 WORK, AND THEN HIS REASON TO BOAST WILL BE IN 22:38 HIMSELF ALONE AND NOT IN HIS NEIGHBOUR." IN OTHER 22:39 WORDS, DON'T COMPARE YOURSELF. IF YOU'RE GOING 22:42 TO PAIR YOURSELF WITH ANYBODY.>>BILL: THAT'S THE 22:44 STANDARD. GOD'S THE STANDARD. >>DR. 22:45 KNIGHT:.LOOK TO GOD. 22:46 >>BILL: YEAH. NOT YOUR NEIGHBOUR. >>DR. KNIGHT: 22:47 LOOK TO GOD. OKAY, OKAY, THEN WE GO DOWN TO VERSE 22:49 7, "DO NOT BE DECEIVED; GOD IS NOT MOCKED, WHAT A 22:53 MAN SOWS, THAT HE ALSO REAPS." PAUL NEVER USES 22:54 THE WORD 'JUDGEMENT' BUT YOU'VE GOT THE IDEA. 22:59 >>BILL: RIGHT. >>DR. 22:59 KNIGHT: AND SOME OF THIS WE SEE NOW BUT SOMETIMES 23:04 WE DON'T. OVER IN THE BOOK OF PSALMS, THE PSALMIST IS 23:08 ALL CONCERNED ABOUT HOW COME SOME OF THE 23:09 WICKED PEOPLE ARE PROSPERING.>>BILL: RIGHT. 23:12 >>DR. KNIGHT:.THERE WILL COME A DAY. I MEAN, SOME 23:15 OF IT WE SEE NOW. 23:16 I MEAN, YOU ARE GOING TO DO CERTAIN THINGS, YOU'RE 23:19 GOING TO DESTROY YOUR BODY AND YOU'LL PAY NOW 23:20 >>BILL: RIGHT. >>DR. 23:22 KNIGHT: OTHER THINGS ONLY THE JUDGEMENT OF GOD. BUT 23:23 EVENTUALLY THIS PRINCIPLE HOLDS TRUE FOR EVERYTHING. 23:28 "WHATEVER A MAN SOWS, THAT HE SHALL ALSO REAP". HE 23:33 GETS DOWN TO THE END, VERSE 11, "SEE WITH 23:34 WHAT LARGE LETTERS I'M WRITING", WELL, IT COULD 23:38 BE BECAUSE HE HAD BAD EYES BUT IT'S MOST LIKELY HE'S 23:41 USING CAPITAL LETTERS FOR EMPHASIS. >>BILL: OH. 23:42 >>DR. KNIGHT: THIS IS LIKE ITALICS. >>BILL: OH, 23:46 YOU'RE KIDDING. >>DR. 23:47 KNIGHT: YEAH. >>BILL: I HADN'T REALIZED THAT. 23:48 >>DR. KNIGHT: WELL, WE'VE GOT TO CLOSE OFF NOW BUT 23:50 LET'S CLOSE OFF WITH PAUL'S FAVOURITE WORD, 23:51 VERSE 18, "THE GRACE OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST BE 23:53 WITH YOUR SPIRIT. AMEN". 23:54 >>BILL: AMEN. >>DR. 23:59 KNIGHT: HE STARTS WITH GRACE, HE ENDS WITH GRACE 24:00 THAT'S PAUL'S GOSPEL. 24:03 >>BILL: INCREDIBLE. THANKS SO MUCH. LET'S END THIS 24:04 BROADCAST WITH A WORD OF PRAYER. HEAVENLY FATHER, 24:09 WE THANK YOU FOR THE GRACE THAT YOU SHOW AND THE 24:13 MERCY TO EACH AND EVERY ONE OF US.
